STEP 1: Check System Requirement

We highly recommend to verify following on your host. For help contact your hosting company.

  • Running latest WordPress version (example: 4.5 or higher)
  • PHP 7.0 or higher
  • MySQL 5.6 or higher (for legacy environments also PHP versions 7.0.x will work).

Recommended PHP Configuration Limits

Many issues that you may run into such as; white screen, demo content fails when importing, empty page content with Fusion Builder and other similar issues are all related to low PHP configuration limits. The solution is to increase the PHP limits. You can do this on your own, or contact your web host and ask them to increase those limits to a minimum as follows:

  • PHP version PHP 7.0 or higher
  • MySQL 5.6 or higher (for legacy environments also PHP versions 7.0.x will work).
  • memory_limit 256M
  • post_max_size 256M
  • upload_max_filesize 256M
  • max_execution_time 3000
  • max_input_time 3000
  • max_input_vars 3000
  • GZip (gzopen) is used to open the GEOIP database from MaxMind.

You can verify your PHP configuration limits by installing a simple plugin found here. If you still cannot resolve the 500 error, talk with your web hosting support.

STEP 2: Wordpress Installation

What is WordPress?

WordPress 101 – What is WordPress?

WordPress is an online, open source website creation tool written in PHP. But in non-geek speak, it’s probably the easiest and most powerful blogging and website content management system (or CMS) in existence today.

To learn more about WordPress or download the latest version check out https://wordpress.org/download/

How to Install WordPress?

WordPress 101 – How To Install WordPress?

[note: Your hosting company’s control panel will most likely be different from the one shown in the video and the steps might slightly vary so please refer to the instructions below for more details.]

Now a days all the major hosting companies such as 1and1, BlueHost and MediaTemple and Godaddy offers One-Click Installation so in most cases you might not need to install it manually.

For any reason One-Click install option is not available you can refer to the official WordPress installation guide. To speed up the process I highly recommend to checkout a much simpler (unofficial) Complete WordPress Installation Tutorial by WPbeginner which includes both One-Click and Manual (FTP) installation.

Congratulations! By now you must have completed the WordPress Installation.

What next, after Installing WordPress?

  1. Go to http://www.your-website.com/wp-admin
  2. Login to WordPress Admin Panel.
  3. Welcome to WordPress Dashboard

For more information watch the following video or see the step-by-step instructions on WordPress site to get you started if this is your first time.

[Note: Please also refer to WordPress FAQ if you are new to WordPress. For advance users WordPress Lessons section is also recommended.]

STEP 3: Theme Installation

OPTION 1: Quick & Easy Process
Installing theme from WordPress Admin Panel

  1. From the left-side menu, go to Appearance > Themes.

  3. Click Choose File, and locate the theme file alone.zip, that you downloaded above from themeforest.
  4. Click Install Now.
  5. Go to to Appearance > Themes and click Activate.

[Note: You must unzip the original file and upload only the alone.zip, or else you get an error.]

This will activate the newly installed theme and redirect you to the Easy Setup Assistant wizard which will guide you through the step-by-step setup process. We highly recommend you to follow the Setup assistant without skipping any step unless you are sure what you are doing.

 

OPTION 2: Manual & Advance Process
Installing theme from FTP

  • Log into your hosting space via an FTP software.
  • Unzip the Alone.zip file and ONLY use the extracted alone theme folder.
  • Upload the extracted alone theme folder into wp-content > themes folder.
  • Activate the newly installed theme by going to Appearance > Themes and clicking the Activate button.

This will activate the newly installed theme and redirect you to the Easy Setup Assistant wizard which will guide you through the step-by-step setup process. We highly recommend you to follow the Setup assistant without skipping any step unless you are sure what you are doing.
